…with an elegant but HUGE tube sound, your sources will simply sound BETTER by running them through this legendary passive EQ & tube line amplifier circuitry.

 

The EQP-A is a zero-compromise recreation of the classic 1950s Pultec EQP-1A tube equalizer, known for imparting a uniquely electric, silky sheen and thundering, tight low end to countless recordings from the 1950s through the current day. Featuring custom-wound inductors, transformers, and a full complement of NOS tubes, the EQP-A is as close as one can get to an original unit without paying vintage prices!

Product Description

What’s a “Mastering Edition”?

It’s the same circuitry as the standard version EQP-A, complete with all the NOS tubes and carbon composition resistors, but in the Mastering Edition the EQ section features all precision rotary switches; stepped pots instead of continuously variable pots. The rotary switches are more precise and offer exact repeatability, a must in mastering EQs.

AudioScape even went one step even further with these rotary switches in an effort to retain the original look of the EQP-A. The stepped boost and cut controls are custom-made 21 position switches, not some “off the shelf” switches. This allows AudioScape to maintain the look of the original front panel without looking cluttered, or just straight up weird.

Pretty darn cool!

Each EQP-A Mastering Edition will be given its own unique serial number that designates it as a true AudioScape “Mastering Edition” unit.

PLEASE NOTE: If you have purchased a EQP-A, please check out their cross-grade program.

Warnings & Safety Information

  • Risk of electric shock – Never open the device while it is connected to the power supply, as high – potentially life-threatening – mains voltages are present inside. Leave maintenance work exclusively to qualified specialist personnel.
  • Water and Moisture - Do not use the unit near any source of water or in excessively moist
    environments.
  • Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so that objects do not fall, and liquids are not spilled, into the enclosure through openings.
  • Ventilation - When installing the unit in a rack or any other location, be sure there is adequate
    ventilation. Improper ventilation will cause overheating and can damage the unit.
  • Heat - The unit should be situated away from heat sources, or other equipment that produce heat.
  • Power Sources - The unit should be connected to a power supply only of the type described in the
    operating instructions, or as marked on the unit.
  • Power Cord Protection - AC power supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be
    walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them. Pay particular attention to cords at
    plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the unit. Never take hold of the
    plug or cord if your hand is wet. Always grasp the plug body when connecting or disconnecting it.
  • Non-use Periods - The AC power supply cord of the unit should be unplugged from the AC outlet when left unused for a long period of time.
  • Damage requiring maintenance – In such cases, please contact a qualified technician.
